WARNING

Getting Started
• Never remove the grilles except for maintenance.
• Always charge battery to its maximum before using the SEASCOOTER™. After charging is complete the
battery will continue to emit gas. Wait at least 30 minutes after charging before removing the battery from
the charger or placing the battery into the battery housing. Failure to do so could result in an explosion.
• The Seascooter™ is not a personal floatation device - always wear a Approved Personal Flotation
Device / Approved Life-Preserver when using the Seascooter™ for snorkeling.
• ALWAYS keep the SEASCOOTER™ out of direct sunlight when not in use. HEAT KILLS BATTERIES
AND IT MAY EXPLODE OR LEAK.

maximum depth of 30m/100ft.
• ALWAYS remove the battery from the unit when not in use.
• DO NOT store the battery in the unit
• In different waters (seawater, lake, pool) and conditions such as currents, temperature and pressure can
affect the buoyancy of the unit which may cause the unit to sink if accidentally released.
• DO NOT release or leave the Seascooter in the water. Always take the unit out of water when not in use.

to ensure you can get back to the surface safely.
Important Notice: This machine is not to use to mix or
to work with sand, concrete and material with similar
physical characteristics. This machine is only to use
for swimming and diving in water.

Using the SEASCOOTER™for diving -
adjusting the buoyancy.
Your SEASCOOTER™ MARINE 200 can be used for diving up to
20m/65ft but will need to be adjusted for neutral buoyancy.
Your SEASCOOTER™ MARINE 250 / MARINE 280 / MARINE 300
can be used for diving up to 30 m / 100 ft but will need to be
adjusted for neutral buoyancy.
The SEASCOOTER™must never be adjusted for negative
buoyancy to avoid it sinking if accidentally released.
To adjust for neutral buoyancy follow these instructions
1.
Make sure the SEASCOOTER™ is in the Off position.
2. Remove the SEASCOOTER™from the water, give a half
turn to the Latches, remove them (see figure 5) and
remove the Buoyancy Control Chamber.
3. Open the Buoyancy Chamber and add a small amount of
rocks or a lead weight (see figure 6).
4.
Cover the Buoyancy Chamber with the Nose Cone then
secure the latches and place the SEASCOOTER™ in the
water. If the SEASCOOTER™ is neutrally buoyant it will
neither float nor sink.
5. If the SEASCOOTER™ sinks, remove the weight until it is
neutrally buoyant.
If the SEASCOOTER™ is still positively buoyant repeat
step 3, until it is neutrally buoyant.
1110
If the SEASCOOTER™ is later used for swimming
or snorkeling be sure to remove the weight from
the Buoyancy Chamber so the SEASCOOTER™
has positive buoyancy.

• Your SEASCOOTER™ is supplied with a battery that
needs to be treated carefully as it will release potentially
explosive gases during its normal cycle of use
(off-gassing). Failure to do so can result in an explosion
occurring. Please read the entire manual thoroughly and
follow all instructions.
• Always remove the battery from your SEASCOOTER™
when it is not in use. Store separately in a well ventilated
area where it is out of the reach of children and away
from heat and ignition sources.
• Do not attach the battery in your SEASCOOTER™ until
prior to using it.
• Before disconnecting/connecting any cables, open the
nose cone and allow two minutes for any explosive gases
to dissipate.
• Do not use/store/charge the battery in temperatures
above 40ºC (104ºF) as excessive off-gassing may occur.
Keep the battery and SEASCOOTER™ in the shade
when not in use.
• Always ensure the unit is dried thoroughly before opening
the Nose Cone.
• Only use the charger supplied with the SEASCOOTER™.

and ignition sources. Recharge it every three months to
maintain charge and avoid excess off-gassing. DO NOT
store the battery inside the SEASCOOTER™.
• If the battery appears damaged or will not fully charge,
the battery must be replaced. If battery life is noticeably
reduced, the battery should be replaced.
• The battery supplied with your SEASCOOTER™ should
last about 200 cycles or two years before it should be
replaced. Please contact your local customer service
center/distributors. Using a battery in excess of these
recommendations can result in excessive off-gassing of
explosive gases.
